Official Community Plan Amendments

The Official Community Plan describes the long-term vision for the City. It is reviewed approximately every ten years, but small minor changes, or amendments, can be made in between reviews. An example of a development project that could require an amendment to the Official Community Plan would be if a developer owned a property that was zoned for industrial use but wished to build commercial office space on it.

The City is preparing a new Official Community Plan that will guide us to 2021 and beyond. We want to build a community that meets your needs and those of future generations. The Official Community Plan (OCP) is a statement of the City's long-term vision for the future: a truly livable City with a distinct sense of place and visible links to the community's natural and cultural past.
